Bose Professional Upgrades Panaray Loudspeakers with Series IV

The What: The Panaray Series IV models are upgraded versions of the classic Bose Panaray 802 and 402 loudspeakers.

The What Else: The Panaray 802 Series IV loudspeaker features a wide 120-degree-vertical-by-100-degree-horizontal Articulated Array design, while the 52 Hz low-frequency response can eliminate the need for subwoofers, providing a cost-effective solution for many indoor and outdoor installed sound-reinforcement applications. The new Series IV model adds new side threaded inserts and optional accessory U-Bracket to make installations simple, fast, and cost effective. The Panaray 802 Series IV comes in a black finish, measures 13.3 inches by 20.5 inches by 13.2 inches (338 by 520 by 335 millimeters) and weighs 30 pounds (13.6 kilograms).

The Bottom Line: The Panaray 802 Series IV is an apt upgrade for more fixed installations, while the 402’s lighter build makes it appropriate for more mobile applications. Both are well-suited to indoor and outdoor events. The Panaray 802 Series IV loudspeaker is available now, while the Panaray 402 Series IV is scheduled to be available in early 2016.
